jsom 0.0.1

A fast, simple parser for terribly broken JSON

JSOM - not quite JSON, but close enough

jsom is a simple and quick Python 3.7+ parser for terribly broken JSON.

Installation

$ pip install jsom

Usage

jsom works like this:

>>> import jsom
>>> broken_json = "{\"foo\": {bar: 1, 'baz':,}, bar: 1, baz: [1,2,3,],}")
>>> jsom.JsomParser(ignore_warnings=jsom.ALL_WARNINGS).loads(broken_json)
{'foo': {'bar': 1, 'baz': None}, 'bar': 1, 'baz': [1, 2, 3]}

jsom happily gobbles up the following:

• unquoted keys and values
• single-quoted strings
• trailing commas
• empty values in objects

By default, it will warn you whenever it sees one of those, but still parse it.

Warnings are annoying, though, and to make matters worse, they slow the parser down - so just pass in the list of warnings you want jsom to be quiet about in the ignore_warnings parameter:

parser = JsomParser(
    ignore_warnings=[jsom.SINGLE_QUOTED_STRING, jsom.EMPTY_OBJECT_VALUE]
)

Or, if you prefer, just tell it to shut up completely, by passing in jsom.ALL_WARNINGS.
